The next day, the husband and wife woke up in a bright mood. Tristan and Zhen-Zhen talked about their future plans for their family.
They were so happy that they couldn't ask for more. Tristan felt the need to continue his wedding proposal to Zhen-Zhen.
He left the Davis Mansion with one goal in mind. He needed to prepare everything for one last ti. Now that the conflict with the Miller Family had been fixed, Tristan wanted to focus on his wedding with Zhen-Zhen.
To make it official, Tristan must accomplish his romantic proposal in the waterfall at Mt. Calypso. He already ntioned his plan to Grandpa Lu and his parents.
They were so excited for Tristan's and Zhen-Zhen's wedding ceremony. They have been waiting for this to happen. Grandpa Lu wanted to scold his grandson for delaying things.
Grandpa Lu told Tristan not to delay the wedding anymore. They would be happy to witness their wedding by this year.
Tristan felt so grateful for the support of his family. Now he needed to talk to Zu Wan as well to officially ask for his blessings.
Tristan went to his Condo Unit without Zhen-Zhen's knowledge. Though he felt intimidated and frightened by Zu Wan, Tristan wanted to muster his courage up in facing him alone.
Ella was currently in school. Today was her first day of class at her new school. So Zu Wan was just left alone in Tristan's condo unit.
This was also a great opportunity for him to talk to Zu Wan privately. Tristan sucked a deep breath before ringing the doorbell. After a few seconds, the door slid open as Zu Wan greeted his sight.
"Hello, Father-in-law!" Tristan curtly nodded at him while greeting him with a wide smile.
Zu Wan just looked at him with his stoic expression. He let the door open as he returned to the living room. That was one way of inviting Tristan in.
Tristan followed him inside the house. He was the one who closed the door. He looked like an obedient puppy following his master.
Zu Wan leisurely sat down on the couch, checking Tristan out from top to bottom. Tristan gulped hard, contemplating whether to sit beside Zu Wan or on the opposite chair.
"Why are you here?" Zu Wan asked Tristan with his serious expression.
Tristan gulped hard before sitting on the opposite chair, facing Zu Wan.
"Father-in-law, there is sothing I want to tell you," he responded ekly. Tristan was still trying his best not to look nervous in front of Zu Wan.
Zu Wan could sohow feel that Tristan was a little bit anxious right now.
'Do I look frightening to him?' Zu Wan pondered to himself.
He could still rember how Tristan approached him before. He even hugged him as if they were so close. But now, he looked very cautious as if he was afraid to commit any mistake in front of him.
"Okay, go ahead. Tell …" This ti Zu Wan lowered his voice, trying to ease Tristan up a little.
"Father-in-law, I know you don't like as of now. I understand because this is our first ti eting each other. But I just want to assure you that I love your daughter so much." Tristan was speaking from the bottom of his heart.
"I promise to make her happy and protect her with my life. If ever I hurt her, you can punish any ti. But please give your blessings, Father-in-law…"
Zu Wan remained silent. He was just looking at Tristan with his eyebrow raised. Tristan, on the other hand, just continued speaking.
"Father-in-law, please believe . I have genuine intentions for her. All I want is for her to be happy together with our complete family."
"Please don't hate so much, Father-in-law. Give a chance. Let prove to you how much I love your daughter…"
Tristan finally stopped talking, waiting for Zu Wan's response.
Zu Wan cleared his throat first before saying a word.
"It's true that I hate you. I felt like my daughter was stolen from by a stranger…"
Tristan bit his lip when he heard that. He could understand Zu Wan's feelings. It's natural because he was a father. He would feel the sa way if his daughter would also marry soone in the future.
"But I can't deny the fact that you were the one who took care of my daughter when I was not by her side. I can't deny the fact that you are her source of happiness…"
"I can see how much she loves you by just looking at her. There is always a glowing smile on her face whenever she will talk about you."
Tristan was touched hearing those words from Zu Wan.
'Does it an he is acknowledging now as his son-in-law?'
"Of course, my priority is my daughter's happiness. If she is happy with you then I will not oppose your relationship. And I don't have the right to keep you apart from each other."
Tristan almost jumped from happiness. He felt like a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulder when he got this positive response from Zu Wan.
"If you are asking for my blessings, then I will give it to you. But I hope… you will keep your promise. Because if you don't, I will punish and torture you as well if ever I see her cry." Zu Wan gave him a warning.
A grateful smile carved on Tristan's lips. Getting the blessings of Zhen-Zhen's real father was sothing he wanted to rejoice and celebrate today. He felt like he just won a lottery!
"Yes, father-in-law. I promise not to make her cry. Thank you so much for giving this chance. I will not let you down."
Tristan wanted to hug Zu Wan but he hesitated, thinking that Zu Wan hated physical touch from other people.
"Father-in-law, can I ask you one favor?" Tristan thickened his face to shalessly ask this of him.
"What favor?" Zu Wan asked with a deep frown.
Tristan smiled sheepishly before answering, "I am preparing a big surprise for Zhen-Zhen. I need your help Father-in-law to make it happen… Can you help ?"
When it ca to Zhen-Zhen, Zu Wan would never say no! Of course, it's a yes! He was willing to help Tristan.
